Pig Killer

Chapter 180

"Is it okay?" Da Chong looked at his mother uncertainly and asked.

"You forgot the pig's bladder. It was blown so big that you can't even break it by stepping on it." Shen Hui'e said to them with eyes as gentle as jade.

"Yes! This one can be used, but it's too short." Li Nu looked at her with sparkling eyes.

"Pig intestines are also very elastic. With a little processing, they can also be used to make bowstrings." Shen Hui'e looked at them with a smile and said, "Don't worry now! There are always more solutions than problems."

"Yeah!" The brother and sister nodded in unison.

"Mother, given the current situation, I guess no pig farmer will raise pigs anymore!" Da Chong sighed as he looked at her, looking as worried as an old man.

"Silly, rich people are not affected." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

"They also have to pay food." Li Nu looked at her with innocent eyes and said.

"Little fools, we pay money but not grain, can't they figure it out?" Shen Hui'e looked at them with her bright dark eyes.

Shen Hui'e complained in her heart: The small peasant economy is very fragile and cannot withstand the slightest disturbance, whether it is natural or policy-oriented.

Shen Hui'e and her two daughters returned home, and Shen Changsheng was waiting for them.

"You're back so soon, doesn't that make sense?" The moment Shen Hui'e saw him, her heart was in her throat.

"It's all made sense, it's all made sense." Shen Changsheng looked at her with a smile and said, "The chief clerk agreed to help the county magistrate to be flexible, flexible."

"That's good." Shen Hui'e breathed a sigh of relief.

"But this amount of money is a bit too much." Shen Changsheng hesitated and said to her.

"It's worth any amount of money." Shen Hui'e also responded readily, "How much? I'll give it to you."

"No, no, I'll pay for it for you." Shen Changsheng looked at her with his dark eyes.

"Didn't you say that they asked for too much?" Shen Hui'e looked at him worriedly.

"I can still afford this little money." Shen Changsheng smiled gently.

"Okay then!" Shen Hui'e looked at him gently and said.

"Tell your mother-in-law and prepare the money first." Shen Changsheng instructed her.

"Okay!" Shen Hui'e nodded hurriedly.

"Then I'll go back first and wait for the news from the chief clerk." Shen Changsheng looked at her gently and said, "Don't worry."

"I have asked my brother-in-law to start making arrows." Shen Hui'e said, looking at him with her deep and penetrating eyes.

"Arrows?" Shen Changsheng's eyes flickered. "Are you planning to shoot arrows and hunt?"

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright black eyes and nodded slightly, "The reality is here! The wheat is still turning green, and there are still three or four months before the summer harvest. If we don't find a solution, Qing will starve to death!"

"But what about you now?" Shen Changsheng blinked and looked at her.

"As long as we can do it, we can practice it!" Shen Hui'e said while gesturing with her hands, "Isn't it just drawing the bow and shooting the arrow, aiming, and pulling the bowstring. Whoosh...", "the arrow is shot out." She added simply, "Puff..." and it shot into the animal's body.

"Haha..." Shen Changsheng shook his head and laughed, "Can you draw the bow? That requires a lot of strength."

"I'm very strong, but I'm not a general. Their bows are of the best quality and can shoot very far. We can just use ours." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her bright eyes.

"You have to be able to shoot." Shen Changsheng said to her with his dark eyes.

"It's done. I need to practice first." Shen Hui'e chuckled and said, "How can I go hunting right after I'm done? I'm not that capable yet."

"Okay! I wish you success." Shen Changsheng looked at her with a smile.

"By the way, when I went to see my brother-in-law just now, I told him that the money could be used to exchange for food, and he agreed." Shen Hui'e looked at him with gentle eyes and said.

"In this situation, everyone has to protect the food in their hands first." Shen Changsheng looked at them with deep black eyes and said, "We don't know what will happen after the summer harvest?"

"The wheat is harvested, we can't possibly take it all away!" the tiger said, looking at them optimistically.

"Yes! The big tiger is right. At least leave some food for us." Shen Hui'e said without thinking, and winked at Shen Changsheng.

Shen Changsheng understood and said, "Yes, your mother is right."

"I'm leaving." Shen Changsheng stood up and looked at them and said.

"I'll see you off." Shen Hui'e stood up and sent Shen Changsheng away.

Shen Hui'e closed the door and bolted it.

"Ah..." The cat slave suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Da Chong was startled and looked at her nervously and asked.

"Mother, I don't have any pigs to kill, so where will I get the bowstring?" said the cat slave, grabbing his mother's hand.

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "The pigs haven't been killed yet, so there must be a climax now."

"Is it because there is no food?" The big tiger looked at her with its black eyes and said.

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e clenched her fists.

"Can it be sold?" said the big tiger worriedly.

"If we can't sell it, make it into bacon." The raccoon slave looked at them with eyes like black grapes and said.

"Cooked meat is seasonal." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her ink-black eyes.

In the agricultural era, agricultural and sideline products are mostly seasonal.

It was only in the industrial age that the limitations of seasons were broken.

"Ah! What should we do then?" asked the raccoon anxiously.

"Then the buyers of pork will have to focus on the big families." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her bright black eyes and said, "Their lives will not be affected in any way." She added with gloomy eyes, "It's just that the price will be lowered."

"Isn't this just taking advantage of someone's misfortune?" Li Nu said angrily, puffing up his cheeks.

"It's normal." Shen Hui'e looked at them calmly and said, "The price of bacon didn't drop before the New Year."

When the big insect mentioned this, he looked at his mother with sparkling eyes and said, "Mother, mother, the pig farmers worked together to hold off the wine shop owners!"

"Unity is strength." Shen Hui'e clenched her fist and waved it, "Don't underestimate the rural acquaintance society."

"As long as there are pigs to kill, we have bowstrings to use." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her jade-like eyes and said, "Don't worry."

"Uh-huh!"

Three days later, Liu Ding finished making the bow and arrow and brought it over excitedly.

"Sister-in-law, I can only make a rough idea. We don't know whether it will be useful or not." Liu Ding handed the finished bow and arrow to her.

"Okay! As long as it looks good." Shen Hui'e took the bow and arrow and said with a smile.

"This one has no bowstring?" Liu Ding looked at her worriedly and said.

"I'm done." Shen Hui'e looked at him with a smile.

"Is it done? What is it made of?" Liu Ding looked at her with his eyes wide open.

"It's made of pig intestines and tendons." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright eyes and said, "It can be stretched very long without breaking."

"Here!" Da Chong took out the bowstring and handed it to his mother.

"Let your Uncle Liu see it." Shen Hui'e said to the big tiger with her crystal clear eyes.

Liu Ding took the special bowstring from Da Chong's hand, pulled it, and tugged it. "Wow..." He was full of amazement and urged, "Try it quickly."

"Tie it on hastily first, try it out, then ..."

Before Shen Hui'e finished speaking, Liu Ding continued, "After trying it, it works. I installed it for you." He smiled and said, "The next step is to see how long it can last."

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e took the bowstring from his hand, tightened it, and tied it to both ends of the bow.

"Where are the arrows! How can you shoot without them?" Liu Ding said anxiously.

"Uncle Liu is more anxious than us." Da Chong shook his head and chuckled.

"If I can make a bow and arrow like this, I can also go hunting!" Liu Ding said to him with a smile.

"My uncle made the arrow these two days." The cat slave took the arrow.

The arrows flashed with cold light, making people tremble in their hearts.

Shen Hui'e looked at her son with cold eyes and said, "Go and close the door and lock it."

"Hey!" The tiger responded crisply, and ran to the gate of the courtyard, closed the gate and bolted it.

Shen Hui'e looked at them with her glassy eyes and said, "All of you move aside and stand behind me."

Shen Hui'e stood about ten meters away from the courtyard gate, put the arrow on the bowstring, easily pulled the bowstring out of the full moon, and released the bowstring. Only a whoosh sound was heard.

The arrow pierced the air like a meteor and shot into the wooden door with a bang, with the tail of the arrow still trembling slightly.

Shen Hui'e didn't aim either. What she was testing now was her strength. Would it work?

The big tiger ran to the gate and looked at the arrow shot at the wooden door, "It hit the target! This bow and arrow is useful."

"Pull out the arrow." Shen Hui'e pointed at the arrow on the door panel with her index finger.

"Ah!" The tiger grabbed the bow and arrow, and pulled it out with great effort, and even took a few steps back.

"Is it pierced so deep?" Liu Ding said in surprise.

"The closer you are, the deeper the stab." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep, penetrating black eyes and said, "Generally speaking, killing someone is done from a distance of a hundred steps."

The effective range of a bow and arrow is usually around one hundred meters.

"Our bows and arrows can't reach that level!" Liu Ding said very honestly, "Their arrows are better made than ours."

"This is already very good, enough for us to hunt." Shen Hui'e took the bow and arrow handed to her by Da Chong and said. From the sawdust brought out by the arrow, it can be seen that it has already penetrated two-thirds of the door panel.

"It looks like the distance can be extended." Shen Hui'e looked at Liu Ding with her dark eyes and said, "Once you have adjusted the bow and arrow, let's go to the big tree outside the city and try it out."

"Hey!" Liu Ding responded readily after hearing this, and sat on the bench with the bow and arrow in his hand, and began to make the bowstring 'dead' so that it would not fall off easily.

Shen Hui'e and her companions went outside the city with bows and arrows and conducted a test of their speed, ten steps at a time.

The accuracy is still good at fifty steps away.

"Mother, you are very accurate in archery." The tiger looked at her in amazement and said.

"Second sister-in-law, have you really never practiced it?" Liu Ding looked at her with wonder in his eyes.
